The 1998 Deck*
If you're part of an African-American household (or have the privilege of being invited to the cookout), then you know that a good round of Spades is bound to happen after the holiday meal. Now, thanks to The 1998 Deck creator Khia Jackson, you can slam down the Big Joker with hip-hop flair. Khia’s redesigned the standard deck of playing cards and reimagined them in the images of hip-hop royalty like The Notorious B.I.G., Lauryn Hill, Lil’ Kim, Outkast and more. Currently, the Biggie deck (which starts at a very reasonable 10 bucks) is the only one available, but decks dedicated to Nas, Tupac Shakur and JAY-Z are soon to come. If you have a hip-hop lover on your gift list or you just want to make game night all the way live, The 1998 Deck might just be the perfect stocking stuffer. — D-Money
